CELL-TO-CELL COMMUNICATION: INFLAMMATORY REACTIONS (DVD-ROM), SECOND EDITION

This spectacularly sophisticated computer animation in HD quality depicts the highly complex processes of intercellular interaction during an inflammatory periodontal reaction complete with the messenger molecules implicated. The various cell types constitute the main cast of the film, using a finely tuned communication process in their quest to destroy the bacterial invaders, with messenger molecules as supporting cast. The accompanying hardcover booklet includes the original film script and a quiz on the topics discussed in the film. A stunning didactic and dramatic experience! This new extended edition includes a chairside version for patient education. This film is the second in a series of 3D animations that will make up the “Education—Science Comes Alive” 3D film library. Each film will explore a relevant biomedical process in dentistry and oral/maxillofacial surgery. Forthcoming titles: • Soft Tissue Regeneration • Hard Tissue Regeneration
